Adviser as Teacher Rubric

Philosophy - Effective education reaches far beyond the classroom through a co-curricular approach to student activities. Among the goals of student organizations is the opportunity for development of the whole person and for creating a sense of belonging. A critical component is leadership development, which may encompass experiences at the university, college, department, or community levels. The adviser holds the key to the progression of leadership development. The Adviser as Teacher approach to advising is antithetical to the laissez-faire position, which holds that the responsibilities for organizations reside fully with students.
